If you searched Google to looking find a furnace repair service in Denver, and you happened to scroll down past the companies listed in the local Maps section, you would see a bunch of websites with headlines like this…

Is There Something You Should Know About These ‘Best Of’ Lists?

The logical question that comes to mind is how did the companies behind these websites determine that the contractors on their list are actually the best furnace repair companies in Denver?

There’s an obvious answer to that question once you know the secret behind the websites promoting their own ‘Best Furnace Repair Companies’ lists. Of the websites listed in that screenshot, 4 out of 5 of them are published by lead-generation companies. Lead-generation companies sell ‘leads’ (the information homeowners submit online) to small contractors who typically don’t have the knowledge or resources to market themselves.

UPDATE: Since this article was originally published, I’ve been asked several times why I didn’t include Altitude Comfort Heating and Air in the list of the best furnace repair companies in Denver when Altitude has more than twice as many 5-star Google reviews than any other heating and air company in the metro area.

There are a couple of reasons actually. First, I know people read my articles looking for solid information they can trust. Since I work at Altitude Comfort I didn’t want the appearance of a conflict of interest to color the objectivity I strive to maintain in every article I write.

Second, I just don’t think it’s necessary. Most people already know Altitude Comfort is one the best furnace repair companies in Denver, and if someone else was writing this article, would certainly be included in this list. Now that we’ve covered that, let’s get on to the list of the 5 best furnace repair service companies in Denver…

The big-name lead-generation companies call themselves ‘home improvement’ websites, and as you might imagine, their Best Furnace Repair Service in Denver lists only include contractors that buy homeowner leads from them. That would be fine IF, the companies behind these Best Of lists were at least honest enough to disclose their financial relationship with the furnace repair contractors they include in their lists. Unfortunately, they aren’t honest enough to do that. I checked as I wrote this article, and I could not find any mention of a financial relationship between those websites and the companies on their ‘Best Of’ lists.

Conclusion
So there you have it, the real No B.S. list of the 5 best furnace repair companies in Denver, Colorado. So why am I writing an article about how good other companies are instead of promoting Altitude Comfort? Obviously I wish everyone would call us when they need furnace repair service, but that’s not realistic. Sometimes people live outside of our service area, or maybe our schedule is full that day and you need someone right now.

Our attitude is that if we can’t take care of what you need when you call our office, we still want to help, even if that just means helping you find another company that can take care of you. I want everyone in Denver to have honest, objective information to rely on when looking for furnace repair service instead of relying on bogus ‘Best Of’ lists put out by companies that engage in deceptive marketing.

Just In Case You Were Wondering: Unlike the other lists promoted by home improvement lead-generation websites, I have no financial relationship with any of these companies, and neither does anyone else at Altitude Comfort Heating and Air. In the interest of transparency, I have met a handful of people from a few of these companies while I was in our booth at the Colorado Home and Garden Show, but I don’t have a personal relationship with anyone from any of these companies.

If you’d like more specific information on Altitude Comfort Heating and Air or just want to check out how our furnace repair process benefits our customers.
